Depends on what kinda dictionary you are using. In my dictionary, 'pacific ocean' is on the first page of all the words starting with P... with the letter "P" at the top.
If your question is what guide words would pacific ocean fit between... one answer is between guide words "pace-pack" because the word "Pacific ocean would be found after the word 'pace' and before the word 'pack'. That's what guide words are... they are the two words at the top of the page in a dictionary... one in the left top corner... and one in the right top corner.... they are the two words at the top of each page in the dictionary that guide you to determine on which page the word you are looking for will be on to find the spelling, pronounciation, article of speech, definition/meaning, synonyms, and antonyms
In my dictionary, the guide words for the word 'exact' are 'evoke' (top left of page) and 'examinee' (top right of page). Those two words are what guides me... so that I know that the word 'exact' is on that page... because it comes after 'evoke' and before the word 'examinee'
hope this helps!
